Capt. Michael runs a 47’ Sportfishing that can carry up to 6 passengers. It has outriggers, and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There’s are two full bathrooms on board for your convenience.

Capt. Michael will supply rods and reels for you, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but you should ask the captain whether you’ll be catching it yourself.

A First Mate will be there to make sure everything is running smoothly. Mates work hard to make your trip count, so a 10–20% tip is customary.

I have been on the water my whole life. I have been fortunate enough to catch fish from all around the world. I have traveled to Hawaii to catch marlin. I have been to Mexico to catch beautiful mahi mahi. My life has been on the water and I wish to continue to doing it by showing people who may not have that option. With the purchase of the 1997 47ft Viking Sportfish we can tackle any weather and be comfortable doing it. We are one of the biggest and one of the fastest charter boats in the area. With two 800hp MAN diesel engines we can leave the dock and get you fishing quicker. For the guest there are two heads (bathrooms) and two showers. There is a queen bed and a bunk room which hold two singles. Alot of our guest just relax on our 2 couches which seat 7 people comfortably and watch the games on our smart Tv’s. For customers who playing hookie from work, you can stay connected to the world using our offshore Starlink wifi. Or you can tell everyone you have no service. heat and air conditioning are all onboard as well. We look forward to meeting all the future customers at the dock for their next big life experience.
